or Course They Beat the English.

EDITOR NATIONAL TRIBUNE: In the Fall
of 1876. as / was returning on board the mail
steamship California from Fort Wrangle, Alaska
TO Victoria, Vancouver Island, we lay two
weeks at the latter place, during which time
there was a race in Royal Roads between the
United States Marines belonging TO the Lacka-
wanna, Capt Mccain, Commander, in Squi-
mault Harbor, and English marines belonging
to the English man-of-war Opal. The crews
each were seven in number, three oarsmen to
each side, with rudderman. There were also
two steam lanches, one to each boat, TO see fair
play, and judges. The first day the boats failed
to start right. The Opal crew rowed the cir
cult, which was two and a half miles out to a
buoy and return. and claimed to have Won !;
but the Judges decided there was an unfair
start, and there was good deal of excitement
and Growing.
On the second day the crews started fairly
and the Lackawanna crew beat Johnny Bull
"by a long ways" when the American crew
lowered the English flag and foated its own,
rowing out and around about the English men,
of-war Daring, Rocket Phantom, Opal, and the
flagship Shaw, then in harbor. The latter
cheeTed the Lackawanna champions, while our
boys cheered the Opal; but on the return of
the boys the Lackawanna so arranged the
whistle as to sound three groans for the British
fleet and then departed. Old Jimmy Burns,
proprietor of the American Hotel, annihilated
his two-story stovepipe (hat) over the affair.
Poor Jimmy Is dead now. At the time of the
race there were $500 English marines and $50
American in the harbOr and some $4,000
changed hands on the betting.-J. BOWMAN,

EDITOR NATIONAL TRIBUNE: The 9th OF
May, 1864, found the Army of the Tennessee
on a grand flank movement, which resulted in
the capture of AllatOOna Gap. Ga, naturally
the strongest and most formidable position for
defense that the enemy occupied on our line OF
march from Chattanooga to Atlanta The Eff

had reached a position on the extreme right of
the army near Dallas. when we were met by
Hardeeis famous corps of JOhnston's army,
which had been hurried up from the vicinity
of New Hope Church for the purpose of driving
back and crushing our now extended line.
Hardee reckoned without his host and was
terribly punished, suffering loss OF about
1000 while our loss did not exceed 500.
During the progress of, this engagement our
regiment the Doth Mo-, of the First Division,
had reached a prominent position in line of
battle, overlooking a narrow valley through

which ran a small stream, a tributary of Pump
kin Vine Creek, beyond which the enemy had
fallen back some distance in the woods, while
our skirmishers occupied the wooded ridge be-
yond the creek, some 500 yards in front of our
main line We had orders to hold and
strengthen this line, which We proceeded to do,
our men going to work with axes, shoyels, bay
onets, ETC., and in an hour We had pretty
good line of works, as the enemy found out
little later.
After taking in the situation / became seized
with desire to explore the ground to the
front, at least as far down as the creek, which
j found to be a pretty, clear-running stream
from eight to ten feet wide and full of fish.
Notwithstanding the fact that the rebel sharp
shooters were dropping in occasional shots,
striking trees and rocks down there, made
up my mind to have a mess OF fresh fish, pro-
viding they would "bite." fastening up to
our line succeeded in borrowing hook and
line from Serg't John Elliott, and after dig
ging and securing some bait i returned, and in
10 minutes l had caught seven or eight little
fish as long as my hand.
About this time the halls seemed to be COM
ing in unusually fast, and / concluded bad
about fish enough. i started up the slope TO
our line Just as our skirmishers began rapidly
falling back before the now charging column
of the enemy. / found our line in some COM
motion, but prepared 10 meet the brave and
determined foe who were already ascending
the hill from the little stream below. Placing
my fish in the care of comrade while went
to deliver an order for Col. Gage. / came near
being shot more than once, but returned as
quickly as possible to our line, and soon be-
came engaged with the rest of the boys, forget
ting for the time all about my mess of fish.
The enemy was terribly repulsed, leaving the
field thickly strewn with their dead and
wounded.
After the storm / went to look after my fish,
but they could not DO found. The comrade
had dropped them ard grabbed his gun on the
approach of the enemy, and they were either
trampled in the dirt out of all recognition or
appropriated by another lover of fresh fish
whose appetite for something fresh to eat ex-
ceeded his patriotism and consideration of dan
ger OF personal safety at that critical moment
Shortly after the battle again ventured down
TO the little stream among the dead and
wounded; the water now running dark pur-
pie red, from the washings of hundreds of the
wounded who halted there on the retreat after
the desperate charge on our line. i had nc
more desire to 90 a-ishing that day and very

A staff Officer Tells the Story Of
His Capture.
BY ii. W. DAY, BvT.-MAJoR AND A. A. g., FIRST
BRIGADE, THIRD DIVISION, SIXTH CORPS,
HERMoN, MY.

The soldiers of the Army of the Potomac have
been very quiet, leaving TO history their deeds
of valor and the duty performed on so many
hard-fought fields. There has been wide
scope given by our Western comrades, and
an unlimited perspective TO their grand and
wonderful campaigns. My lot as soldier was
with the Army of the Potomac-one that battled
with the flower and strength of the South.
History will record that two such armies have
rarely met in battle.
must correct Lieut.. J. p. Alum, who makes
the claim that a Sergeant-Major of his regi-
ment captured Gen. Ewell. 1t was not so. The
following are the facts: Gen. Ewell was not
captured on April 5; nor do think the battle
ground bears the name he has given il. was
then, and had been some years, serving upon the
brigade staff 20 whom Gen. Ewell, Custis Lee
and others surrendered, and was as near that
point as any other living man, although never
made claim of having captured them nor either
of them. Gen. Ewell surrendered
TO US AND OUR CORPS.
In the afternoon of April 6. 1864, our Sixth
Corps after having made tedious and circuitous
march during the day and night previous from
the right Of the army to the extreme left, came
up with the cavalry, Gen. Sheridan command
ing. We were his pets and he was our idol.
Wherever he directed we would 20. At this
iuncture we were informed that the COnfed-
crates were strongly posted at Sailors Creek, a
muddy stream leading To little no-pace,
Deaconville. We were ordered TO form and
charge them out. That's all. We formed, the
First Division, Gen. Wheaton, on the left. Ours,
the Third, was Ricketts, old division. He,
